Not many banjo players have taken the jazz and blues circuit so warmly. Fronting their own band, and entertaining an audience quite as well as Warren James – he is an exceptional talent and has been a breath of vintage fresh air for the UK jazz scene…”
During the last 3 years Warren James’ name has become recognisable in the UK, owing to his explosive skiffle themed concerts which have been so warmly embraced by the UK jazz and blues community.
He tours with some of the busiest bands in the UK, including The Jake Leg Jug Band, Baby Jools & The Jazzaholics and Richard Bennett and The Hot Tamales.

You can expect to hear a vast mixture of jazz and blues songs that you had forgotten you loved, alongside guest musicians who of the highest calibre. If you make it to one show, then make it this one “Entertainment, just like it used to be.
